Hiring a skip should be simple. Here are answers to some of the most common questions about skip hire, choosing a skip size, delivery and what you can put in your skip.
Ready to book? Skip Trans offers four skip sizes with clear prices and simple online ordering.
The right skip depends on the amount of waste you have and the type of job you're doing.
Mini Skip – €144.99
Our 2.5 cubic yard Mini Skip is ideal for small household clear-outs, DIY jobs and smaller amounts of waste.
Midi Skip – €209.99
Our 4 cubic yard Midi Skip provides extra capacity for household clear-outs, DIY projects and smaller renovations.
Standard Skip – €329.99
Our 6 cubic yard Standard Skip is suitable for larger clear-outs, renovations and building projects.
20 Yard Roll On Roll Off – €900
For larger projects and higher volumes of waste, our 20 Yard Roll On Roll Off provides significantly more capacity.
Skips can be used for many common waste materials from household clear-outs, DIY projects, renovations and construction work.
However, not every type of waste can be placed in a general skip. Certain materials require separate or specialist handling.
If you're unsure about a particular item or material, contact Skip Trans before placing it in your skip.
In many cases, a Mini, Midi or Standard Skip can be placed on a suitable driveway or private property.
Access is important. The delivery vehicle needs sufficient room to safely enter, position the skip and leave the property. Gates, pillars, parked vehicles, overhead cables and other obstructions should all be considered before ordering.
If you're unsure whether access is suitable, contact us before ordering.
Placing a skip on a public road may require permission or a permit from the relevant local authority.
Requirements can vary depending on where you live and where the skip will be positioned. Check the requirements for your location before arranging a skip on a public road.
Delivery availability depends on your location, the skip required and current demand.
When ordering, select the available delivery option that suits your requirements. If you have a particular delivery requirement, contact us and we'll let you know what is possible.
Waste should remain safely within the skip and should not be piled above the sides. An overloaded skip may be unsafe to transport and may not be collected until the excess material has been removed.
If you think you'll have more waste than your chosen skip can safely hold, consider selecting a larger size.
